FIGURE 4.
Keilbachia clinata
sp. n.
(A, B, C, D, E holotype, F paratype).
A:
Maxillary palpus, dorsal view.
B:
Antennal flagellomere 4, ventral view.
C:
Apical part of tibia 1, prolateral view.
D:
Part of hypopygium, ventral view.
E:
Gonostylus, ventral view.
F:
Mesial side of gonostylus, ventral view. Scale 0.10 mm.
Male.
Colour
. Almost unicolorous brown, maxillary palpus and legs paler brown than the other parts, abdomen slightly paler than thorax, wing hyaline brownish, haltere pale brown.
Head
. Eye bridge 4 facets wide. Face (prefrons) with 10–13 setae, which are widely spread. Clypeus with 1 seta. Maxillary palpus,
Fig. 4
A: with 3 palpomeres. Palpomere 1 with 1 seta, the hyaline sensilla widely scattered on the dorsal surface, no sensory pit. Palpomere 2 with 6–8 setae. Palpomere 3 with 5–6 setae. Antennal flagellomere 4,

B.
Thorax
. Anterior pronotum with 2 setae. Episternum 1 with 4 setae.
Wing
similar to
Fig. 5
A, length
1.35–1.40 mm
. Width/length 0.45. R1/R 0.75–0.85. c/
w 0.70
. r-m slightly shorter than bM, r-m/bM 0.80–0.85, both nonsetose.
Legs
. Apex of fore tibia,
Fig. 4
C. Length of fore basitarsomere/length of fore tibia 0.50. Length of fore tibia/length of fore femur 1.25–1.30. Length of hind tibia/length of scutum+scutellum 2.05, measured only for the
paratype
because the thorax of the
holotype
is slightly broken.
Hypopygium
Fig. 4
D, E, F: Gonostylus with the curved megaseta rather short, about as long as its basal body, without additional megasetae or an apical tooth. The ventral mesial margin of the gonostylus at its middle with several lobes associated with the basal body of the megaseta and additional unusual lobes at the base of the latter (
Fig. 4
F). Tegmen simple.
Female unknown.
Discussion.
Keilbachia clinata
is similar to
K. adunca
.
The species differ e.g. by the following characters: 1) In
K. clinata
the setae of the antennal flagellomeres are short and evenly distributed (
Fig. 4
B), while in
K. adunca
the setae are long and arranged in whorls (
Fig. 1
C). 2) In
K. clinata
the mesial megaseta of the gonostylus is longer and curved only at base, while in
K. adunca
the megaseta is shorter and curved throughout its whole length. 3) In
K. clinata
the mesial side of the gonostylus has unusual lobes whereas it is simple in
K. adunca
. 4) In
K. clinata
the tegmen is simple, while in
K. adunca
is has strong lateral shoulders.
K. clinata
is also similar to
K. orthonema
. For distinguishing characters, see under the latter.
